S:17 Bowhunting Turkeys is a Terrible Idea!

Opening morning in Northern Illinois kicks off with sky-high expectations, a perfect setup, and gobblers everywhere… but nothing goes as planned. In this episode of Bowhunt or Die, Kurt dives into one of the most frustrating turkey hunts you’ll ever see. Birds are everywhere, circling decoys, hanging up just out of range, and busting him at every move. Hunting without a blind proves just how brutal bowhunting turkeys can be. Then a massive Midwest storm rolls through — bringing tornado warnings, heavy rain, and uncertainty about whether the hunt is even still possible. But when the weather finally breaks, everything changes.
